The explosion causes the huge chandelier from Versailles to topple from its jury-rigged placement and CRASH onto the audience below . . .
ONSCREEN THE GIANT FACE OF SHOSANNA finishes her WAR CRY.
SHOSANNA’S GIANT FACE
My name is Shosanna Dreyfus, and this is the face of Jewish vengeance! Marcel, BURN IT DOWN!
BEHIND THE SCREEN
Marcel takes his cigarette and FLICKS IT into the pile of nitrate film.
ONSCREEN SHOSANNA’S GIANT FACE LAUGHS MANIACALLY at the scrambling little Nazis, running in a panic, as FLAMES LIKE OUT OF A GIANT BLAST FURNACE BURST THROUGH SHOSANNA’S FACE and CLIMB UP THE WALLS of the cinema.
The AUDIENCE STAMPEDES toward the exits . . .HIRSCHBERGwith bomb set on ankle, is caught in a massive “Day of the Locust” SWARM OF BODIES . . .
People frantically pound on locked doors, trapping them to their grizzly fate.
The FLAMES and FIRE spread through the auditorium . . .Hirschberg, caught in the people crunch, knows this is it.
HIS ANKLE BOMB GOES OFF right underneath everybody in the room.
The effect this has on the people in the room is very similarto that of the effect an M-80 blowing up in an ant hill would have on the ants. The auditorium is a literal red rain of legs, arms, heads, torsos, and asses.
THEN . . . ,DONOWITZ’S TOILET BOMB BLOWS UP UNDERNEATH the auditorium.
COLLAPSING THE CINEMA AND BLOWING OUT THE FRONT OF THE THEATER.
As MADAME MIMEUX’S CINEMA BURNS . . .
These SUBTITLES APPEAR ONSCREEN as if on a military
teletype:
“OPERATION KINO A COMPLETE SUCCESS.”
FADE OUT
